Jake Roolan sings karaoke, by Dutch w/color by me
Not to be outdone by his brother Bruce's recent Tarzan pic, here's a pic of "Jumpin'" Jake Roolan. Another rockin' streammission by
Dutch, now with color by me.
Jake sings "Don't Bring Me Down" by Electric Light Orchestra (ELO.)
Here's the song:

I used to think the lyric was "Don't bring me down, Bruce!" (it's actually "Don't bring me down, groos!") so here, Jake is singing it mockingly to his older brother/team leader Bruce, after some sibling argument.
Here's the original:

Here's a quote from an interview with Jeff Lynne:
"INTERVIWER: I have to ask you about Don’t Bring Me Down …
LYNNE: [Laughs] I know what you’re going to ask.
INTERVIEWER: What?
LYNNE: About Bruce? (4) It was supposed to be Grooss! And we had a German engineer who thought it was Gruß, which means 'greetings'. I left it in and didn’t think anything more of it, but then we went on tour and everyone was singing 'Bruce'. So I joined in and sang Bruce and I’ve sung it ever since. It reminds me of Monty Python. 'Grooss' was just to fill a hole in the song. It’s easier to join in than to explain that it’s not Bruce, it’s actually spelled g-r-o-o-s-s … so I sing 'Bruce' instead of explaining."
